Capped timber paling fence following a curved corner boundary in Drysdale

Drysdale's Own Fence Contractor

The business carries the town's name because this is where we live and work. From the streets around Drysdale Village and the established pockets near the recreation reserve out to the newer developments on the edges of town, these are fences we drive past every day.

Drysdale homes typically sit on generous residential lots that call for a good amount of boundary fencing. Many properties in the area were built in the 1980s and 1990s, which means ageing timber fences are a common sight — palings warped, posts leaning, rails pulling away. Whether you're replacing an old fence entirely or just need a section repaired after a rough winter, we're quite literally around the corner. Our proximity to Clifton Springs also means we regularly work across both suburbs in the same week.

We cover the whole peninsula from here — see our Bellarine Peninsula fencing overview for the full picture.

Knowing the town helps below ground too. The clay near the recreation reserve needs deeper footings than sandier ground, and some streets cop a lot more wind than others. Every job gets poured concrete footings, galvanised fittings and Bugle Batten screws, and when the neighbours can see your work every day, you'd better get it right. We supply and install Colorbond fencing and timber fence palings, and repair fences on any property in Drysdale.

Why Drysdale Locals Choose Drysdale Fencing

Fencing in Drysdale: What People Ask Us

In Drysdale the ground does a lot of the deciding. The clay-heavy soil near the recreation reserve calls for deeper footings, which adds concrete and labour per post. Plenty of homes here went up in the 1980s and 1990s, so there's often an old timber fence to pull out first, quoted as its own line. Generous lots mean longer runs, where the set-up cost is spread across more fence. Colorbond and hardwood timber palings are priced differently again. We quote for free on site — call 0485 577 980 to arrange a visit.
Clay-heavy ground, common across parts of Drysdale, requires deeper footings than sandier soils to stop posts shifting over time. Both Colorbond fencing and hardwood timber fencing work well in Drysdale — the key is poured concrete footings set to the right depth for the conditions, not dry-mix shortcuts. We assess your specific block before recommending materials and footing specifications.
Drysdale falls within the City of Greater Geelong council area. A building permit is needed for a side or rear fence over 2 metres, a front fence over 1.5 metres within 3 metres of the street, a corner fence over 1 metre within 9 metres of an intersecting street, and a brick or masonry fence over 1.2 metres. A planning permit is a separate approval and can apply on its own, for example under a Heritage Overlay. We recommend checking with the City of Greater Geelong directly for your specific property before work begins, and we're happy to advise based on what we see during our free site visit.
Because we're based right here in Drysdale, we can usually arrange a free quote visit within days rather than weeks. Turnaround for repairs and installations depends on the size of the job and our current schedule, but being genuinely local means no long lead times from contractors travelling in from Geelong or Melbourne. Call us on 0485 577 980 to discuss your timeline.
